Swampscott, Massachusetts 09
In late December early January, they had received rain followed by freezing temps and then HAMMERED with snow cover which is still on the ground in shaded areas. Peter has a few GreenJacket covered greens where he has reported had 2-3 inch’s of ICE under 10-18″ snow cover! Well in a proactive manner, he had cut a large enough hole in a few of his GreenJackets that allowed him to remove a few turf plugs from damage-prone areas. If he was expecting to see any damage, he feels it would be in these most prone areas. After pulling the plugs, he then patched the GreenJacket with the repair tape making sure that the area of the cover was dry and clean before applying the tape. Cover pulled, March 16th, 2009.
